Left out of the gossip loop?
Feel like a Public Service Announcement in the Entertainment Weekly
of life? Here's your solution: Make up gossip! Startle your friends and
coworkers with shocking revelations no one would have guessed --
because you made
them up! But don't just jump in feet-first -- you'll need to memorize
these Ten Commandments of Gossip to make your rumors really fly:
RULE #1: Every man in Hollywood who is attractive is gay. If
he's really ugly, really old, or has children, he's bi. If he's
Scientologist, then he's gay again.
COROLLARY: If a female celeb has dated more than one gay male celeb, then
every man she dates is gay.
THEORY: Let's see . . . Brooke Shields has dated Michael Jackson
and George Michael. Oh -- did I say Brooke Shields? I meant
Brooke Agassi.
RULE #2: At social gatherings you assume the sexual preference of
whoever you're sitting near.
WARNING: If you spot an empty seat between Eddie Murphy and
Danny Bonaduce for God's sake keep walking!
COROLLARY: Anyone photographed with a gay man or lesbian is
a gay man or lesbian. Anyone photographed with a moron is a moron.
Anyone photographed with Keanu Reeves . . . you know, I think Keanu's
really kind of sweet.
POSTULATE: Nobody has a photo of Charlie Sheen with Laurence Olivier.
SARCASM ALERT #1: When I heard John Travolta and Tom Cruise were friends,
well -- color me surprised.
RULE #3: Anything a publicist says is a lie.
According to them, nobody sleeps around, nobody's using drugs,
and nobody's ever had plastic surgery for vanity's sake:
it's always a "medical necessity."
PERSONAL NOTE: Well, I'd call a doctor if coke started eating
through my nose.
SARCASM ALERT #2: When I heard that Tori Spelling had to get her nose
fixed because her parrot bit it, well, you would have knocked me over
with a feather.
SARCASM ALERT #3: That must have been one big bird to have bitten both
her breasts too.
RULE #4: Between takes celebs like to show their
tattoos and cosmetic surgery scars to everyone who'll look.
POSTULATE: I hear there's a very rare photo of Roseanne
with her shirt on.
THEORY: Dana Plato didn't freak out from sudden fame: it was
those between-take encounters with Mr. Drummond.
ANSWER TO UNASKED QUESTION: Whatever happened to Buffy and
Jody? Two words: Mr. French.
RULE #5: Everyone in Hollywood is on drugs.
QUESTION: If your houseguest can't get you good sh*t, well, why have one?
RULE #6: When the children of famous people get jobs, it's never
nepotism. Why, usually
the casting directors don't even know it's a famous person's child!
FLASHBACK?: "Um, hi. My name's Tori . . . um . . . McGillicuddy."
RULE #7: Male celeb penis size is inversely proportional to the
man's muscularity.
THEORY: Sex with Leonardo Dicaprio is fabulous.
THEORY: Sex with Sylvester Stallone consists mostly of repeating the
words "Where?" and "There!" over and over.
RULE #8: Every person in Hollywood has, at some point in their career,
starred in a porno movie.
UNANSWERED QUESTION: Why anybody would bring a camera within forty miles of
Ernest Borgnine I'll never know.
ANSWER TO UNASKED QUESTION:
If the film is really grainy and it's a thin guy, it's Rob Lowe.
If it's a stocky guy, it's Sly Stallone. If he's
bent over and yelling, "Hiho Silver!", well, . . . you know, I think
Chuck Connors was kind of hot.
RULE #9: All the men in Hollywood are tramps and all the women are
sluts. The minute the camera turns off they all whip out their bits.
TEST: My tickets to "Home Improvement" should arrive
any day now.
RULE #10: In Hollywood only unsuccessful people are faithful to their
spouses.
REASSURANCE: It's not like Tom is tossing and turning, wondering
about Nicole.
COROLLARY #1: Every untalented female celeb got where she is by sleeping
with men or bearding.
SARCASM ALERT #4: What? A Brooke Shields sitcom? What a
fabulous idea!
COROLLARY #2: Sleeping around does not guarantee success in Hollywood.
PROOF: Did you see "Casino"? Was I the star?
COROLLARY #3: Attractive men get to the top by sleeping
with important women. Unattractive men have to do everybody.
CLOSING: Hasta la vista, baby!
